nanoZ™

The nanoZ tests the impedance and quality of any electrode, from high impedance single unit electrodes to 64 channel silicon electrode arrays or tetrodes. The nanoZ uses very low test currents for in vitro or in vivo testing, and has several pre-programmed modes for doing fully automated electrode impedance spectroscopy, electroplating, impedance matching, site activation, and site rejuvenation.

The nanoZ requires only a PC with a USB port. Simply plug the nanoZ into the computer, install the software suite, and you're ready to go. An intuitive user interface makes the nanoZ easy to use.

In addition to the pre-programmed modes of operation, a software development kit for Matlab is supplied with every nanoZ to develop your own custom nanoZ applications.

Adaptors for ZIF-Clip® Arrays and a variety of other probes are available:

nanoZ-ZCA32 nanoZ to 32 channel ZIF-Clip probes adapter
nanoZ-ZCA64 nanoZ to 64 channel ZIF-Clip probes adapter
nanoZ-OMN/DIP nanoZ to Omnetics and Acute probes adapter
